There wasn't an ugly journalist in the joint. Maybe 'plain' doesn't hack it in the world of celebrity food media or perhaps they all just scrubbed up particularly well for this special night. The best frocks, best smiles and best cleavages were presented for the camera at the Four Seasons Hotel Sydney on September 30. Given the celebrity mix on the tables, the audience was just as good looking as those on stage.

Greg Pickhaver in his 'H.G. Nelson' persona was the MC and took the mickey out of our food pretensions, as well as all the sponsors and kept up the pace for what was a long list of presentations. He also made every winner's photo session a silly event as you'll see from following pages. (My favourite is the one on the last page with a captivated Margaret Fulton.)

There's a full listing of the 2004 Food Media Awards winners on the Club website. You can see the evening's  menu and wine list here. It was a good night - there was an official photographer but these seem to capture the fun.
